Hi All, This may be of interest to those who, like yours truly have an interest in Liddesdale. Regards Roy ----- Original Message ----- From: "sarah" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, August 08, 2003 5:13 AM Subject: [CUL] Magna Britannia - Parochial History 11-16 11 The barony of Lyddal or Liddell, extending over this parish and Kirk-Andrews, was given in the reign of Henry I. by Ranulph de Meschines, to Turgent Brundey[m], or Turgis Brundas, a Fleming. In the reign of King John it was in the baronial family of Stuteville or Estoteville whose daughter And eventually sole heiress, Joan, brought it to the baronial family of Wake. John, Lord Wake, died without issue in 1343, his only sister married Ed-mund Plantagenet, Earl of Kent, whose daughter Joan became the wife of Edward the Black Prince. The barony of Liddell, in consequence became vested in the crown, and appears to have continued to be crown and as parcel of the honor of Dustanburgh, (which honor was parcel of the Duchy of Lancaster,) till the year 1604, when King James granted the forest of Nichol, and the manors of Arthuret, Liddell, and Randilington, with Netherby Hall[n], &c. to George Clifford, Earl of Cumberland, subject to a fee farm rent of 100l. Francis, the succeeding earl, sold those estates to Richard Grahme or Graham, Esq. to whom, in 1629, King Charlses remitted a moiety of the above mentioned rent. This Richard was master of the horse to the Duke of Buckingham, and accompanied Prince Charles into Spain : he was created a baronet in 1629. During the civil war he attached himself to the king’s party, was in the battle of Edghill, and left for dead on the field; he recovered, however, from his wounds, and after the affairs of his royal master became desperate, led a retired life till his death, which happened in 1653. Richard, his grandson, the third baronet, was in 1680 created Viscount Preston of the kingdom of Scotland. He was several years ambassador at the court of France[o], on his return was made master of the great wardrobe, and afterwards secretary of state to King James II. Some time after the Revolution, this nobleman having been taken in a boat on the Thames as he was on the point of leaving the kingdom to join the abdicated monarch, he was tried for high treason and found guilty, but pardoned: his son and grandson succeeded to the title; the latter dying without issue in 1739, Catherine, one of the sisters of the first viscount, who had married William Lord Widdrington, became eventually possessed of the whole of the before mentioned estates, and died in 1757, having bequeathed them to the Rev. Robert Graham, second son of her uncle William Graham, dean of Carlisle, (which William was fourth son of Sir George Graham, the second baronet): the present baronet is Sir Robert Graham, resident in ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- [m] Called in some records Turgis de Russedale. See Inq. ad q.d.2 Edward III. [n] This had belonged for several generations to the ancestors of Walter Grame, who was banished by King James I. in 1606 [o] A large collection of this nobleman’s letters, chiefly written whilst he was resident at Paris, are in the possession of Sir James Graham, Bart. at Netherby. --------------------------------------------- 12 London. The present possessor of the Arthuret estates is James, son of the Rev. Robert Graham above mentioned, who succeeded to his father’s estates in 1782, and was the same year created a baronet. Netherby, the seat of Sir James Graham, Bart., is pleasantly situated a small distance from the banks of the Eske. The greater part of it was built by the late Dr. Graham, on the site of an ancient mansion, the tower of which remains, although it does not retain its original appearance. The grounds are extensive, and have beautiful walks and rides on the banks of the Eske and Liddell. Not far from the house was the Roman station already spoken of. Leland speaks of some of the ruins of the Roman build-ings as still remaining in 1539[p]. The most remarkable of the antiquities there discovered, together with others collected by the late Dr. Graham, are carefully preserved by Sir James, in a room lately fitted up for that purpose. About two miles from Netherby, in the parish of Kirk-Andrews, on the steep banks of the Lid or Liddell, is a moated site called Liddell’s Strength, with a deep double ditch, most probably the site of a castle anciently belong-ing to the Stotevilles, and afterwards to the Lords Wake of Liddell. This castle was taken by William King of Scotland, in the year 1174[q]; David Bruce took it by assault in 1346, and is said to have beheaded its governor, Sir Walter Selby, without allowing him time for confession[r]. Leyland speaks of Liddell castle as having been at that time destroyed. Its site acquired afterwards the name of the Moat, and was occupied by a mansion, which in 1630 was the residence of Sir John Scot, and in 1657 was a seat of the Grahams. It is now the property of Sir James Graham, Bart. A tower which formed part of the old mansion remained within the memory of man. The manor of Breconhill or Brakenhill, in this parish, held under the manor of Arthuret, was in 1688 the property of Mr. Richard Garaham, a distant relation of Lord Preston’s. It now belongs to Edward Stephen- son, Esq., whose relation, Rowland Stephenson, Esq., purchased it in 1752. The present parish church of Arthuret was built in 1609. It contains some monuments of the Graham family, particularly that of Sir George Graham, Bart.1607, {son of Sir Robert Graham, the first baronet),he married Lady Mary Johnston {daughter of James Earl of Hartfell}; and that of the late Robert Graham, D.D., who died in 1782. In the churchyard is the tomb of Lieutenant William Graham, of the Moat, who died in 1657, aged 97. The advowson of the rectory, which in ancient times belonged to the ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- [p] Itin. vol.vii [q] See p. ix [r] See p. xviii. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- 13 abbot and convent of Jedburgh, in Scotland[t], has long been attached to the manor : it is in the deanery of Carlisle. Archibald Armstrong, commonly known by the name of Archy, who was fool, or more properly jester, to King James and King Charles, is said to have been a native of this place, whither he retired after his disgrace at court, and where he died, at an advanced age, in 1672. The cause of his dismissal was the latitude of speech in which he indulged himself on occasion of the commotions in Scotland in 1638, which ensued on the attempt of introducing the English liturgy into that kingdom[u]. Mr. Garrard, Lord Strafford’s cor-respondent, after relating the story of Archy’s disgrace, adds, “There is a new fool in his place, Muckle John, but he will ne’er be so rich, for he cannot abide money[w].” This Muckle John was the last person who filled the situation of fool or jester to the British court. That Archy had made his fortune before his disgrace is confirmed by the verses annexed to the engraved portrait which is prefixed to his book of jests. “Archee, by kings and princes graced of late, “ Jested himself into a fair estate.” The following notices respecting this well known character appear in the parish register at Arthuret :- “Francis, the base son of Archibald Armstrong, baptized Dec. 17, 1643.” “Archibald Armstrong and Sybella Bell married June 4, 1646.” “Archibald Armstrong buried April 1, 1672.” ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- [t] It was given in the reign of Hery 1. by Turgis de Russedale, lord of the manor of Liddell. See Inq. ad q. d. 2 Edw.III [u] It so happened, says Rushworth, that on the 11th of the said March 1637-8, Archibald the King’s fool said to his Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, as he was going to the council-table, “Wha’s feule now? Doth not your Grace hear the news from Strivelin about the liturgy?” with other words of reflection. This was presently complained of to the Council, which produced this ensuing order : “At Whitehall, the 11th of March 1637, PRESENT The King’s most Excellent Majesty, Lord Archbishop of Canterbury, Lord Keeper, &c. &c. “It is this day ordered by his Majesty, with the advice of the Board, that Archibald Armstrong, the King’s fool, for certain scandalous words of a high nature spoken by him against the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury his Grace, and proved to be uttered by him by two witnesses, shall have his coat pulled over his head, and be discharged of the King’s service, and banished the court: for which the Lord Chamberlain of the King’s household is prayed and required to give order to be executed, and immediately the same was put in execution.” [w] Strafford Letters, vol. ii. 154 ------------------------------------------- 14 He was interred in the churchyard at Arthuret; but there is no memorial of him to be found there. The population of the parish of Arthuret has considerably increased within the last sixty years[x]: in 1750, it contained 366 houses; in 1781, 406 houses and 2,100 inhabitants. In the enumeration of late years there has been probably some difference as to deeming tenements under the same roof separate houses; the number of inhabitants being stated at 2,418 in 1801, and 2,693 in 1811; yet the houses are stated to have been only 371 in 1801 and 364 in 1811. The principal population is at Longtown, a considerable thoroughfare[y] on the great road from Carlisle to Edinburgh. There is a market at this town on Thursdays for butcher’s meat, &c. &c. The right of holding a market within the manor or barony of Liddell is of great antiquity. John Lord Wake claimed in the reign of Edward I., under a charter of 51 Hen. III.[z], the right of holding such a market on Tuesday, and a fair for eight days at the festival of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross (commonly called Holyrood day). There is now a horse-fair on the Thursday before Whitsunday, and a fair for hiring of servants on the Thursday after Whit-Sunday, and the Thursday after Martinmas. Cranberries are sold in the season in great quantities at Longtown market, to me sent to London and elsewhere. The sum of 200l. given to the poor of Arthuret and Kirk-Andrews by Reginald Graham, Esq. in 1683, has been applied to the use of the charity schools to which Lady Widdrington, by deed in 1754, gave a rent-charge of 40l. per annum. This is divided among eight schools, four in the parish of Arthuret, and four in Kirk-Andrews. The ancient parish of Eston, now no longer known, is merged in those of Arthuret and Kirk-Andrews; the last mention of it in ecclesiastical records is in 1384, when John de Morton was presented to the rectory by the bishop. There are extensive salmon-fisheries belonging to the Netherby estate in the river Eske, which runs through the parish, and in front of Netherby-House. There is a bridge of five arches over it at Longtown. The fisheries were much damaged in the month of January 1809 by a flood which swept away the wear across the river near Netherby. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- [x] In 1688 it contained only 600 inhabitants. [y] In 1688 there were only twelve houses in Longtown, built of turf or mud. The townhall was of freestone. There was then a considerable market, being the only one, as Mr. T. Denton observes, in all that country. [z] The grant was to John de Stuteville by Cart. 51 Hen. III. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 15 ASPATRIA, in the ward of Allerdale, below Derwent, lies about nine miles from Cockermouth, which is the post-office town. It contains three town-ships; viz. Aspatria and Brayton; Hayton and Melay; and Outerby or Outerside, and Allerby; containing altogether, in 1811, 195 inhabited houses and 919 inhabitants. The manor of Aspatria, as parcel of the barony of Allerdale below Der-went, was given by Ranulph de Meschines to Waldieve, son of Gospatric Earl of Dunbar, and having passed with the barony, belongs now to the Earl of Egremont. The manor of Brayton gave name to a family, who were succeeded in its possession by a younger branch of the Salkelds. It was purchased of the co-heiresses of the latter, in the early part of the last century, by Sir Wilfred Lawson, great-great-grandfather of the late sir Wilfred Lawson, Bart., who died without issue in 1806. The title in consequence became extinct; and this estate, since the death of his widow (which happened in 1811), has passed under his will to Thomas, and on his death, in 1812 to Wilfred, younger sons of Thomas Wybergh, Esq. of Clifton Hall, in Westmorland, who married a sister of Lady Lawson’s; Wilfred, who is as yet under age, has taken the name of Lawson. Brayton-house was much improved by the late baronet, by whom also the grounds were laid out, and extensive planta-tions made. The library, collected at a great expence, was particularly rich in works on natural history. Among the pictures are many of the best works of living English masters, particularly Northcote and Reinagle. Until of late years Isel had been the chief residence of the Lawson family. It is now occupied by Thomas Wybergh, Esq. as guardian to his son Wilfred. The deer-park at Brayton was disparked in 1798. The manor of Hayton was granted by Alan Lord of Allerdale to his huntsman Seliff, whose posterity took the name of De Hayton. From the Haytons this manor passed by a succession of female heirs to the families of Mulcaster, Tilliol, Colvill, and Musgrave. Nicholas Musgrave, who married the heiress of Colvill, was a younger son of Thomas Musgrave of Edenhall, and died in 1500. His descendant, Sir Edward Musgrave, was in 1638 made a baronet of Nova Scotia. Sir Richard, the fifth baronet, took the name of Hylton, pursuant to the will of his uncle, John Hylton, Esq. of Hilton Castle, and dying without issue, the title went to his brother, the late Sir William Musgrave, commissioner of the customs; after his death to his younger brother Thomas, a general in the army, who was succeeded by a distant cousin, James Musgrave, Esq. of Barnsley Park, in Gloucestershire. Sir James Musgrave died in 1814, and was succeeded, now Sir James ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- 16 Musgrave, Bart. The manor of Hayton did not accompany the title, but is now the property of Mrs. Jolliffe (relict of William Jolliffe, Esq. M.P. for Petersfield, who died in 1802), the younger daughter, and eventually sole heiress of Sir Richard Musgrave Bart. The ancient mansion of Hayton Castle is now occupied by the Rev. Isaac Robinson. It is said to have stood a siege by the Parliamentarians, and to have been rebuilt by Sir Richard Musgrave, after the restoration.[a] It appears that the Mulcaster family had in ancient times a market at Hayton on Tuesdays, and a fair for three days at the festival of St. Mary Magdalen.[b] The manor of Outerby or Ughthredby, took its name from Ughtred, to whom it was given by Alan, second Lord of Allerdale. It was for several generations in the family of Orfeur, by whom it was conveyed to Sir Wilfred Lawson, great-great-grandfather of the late baronet. The manor of Allerby or Alwardby, so called from Alward, the first proprietor on record, gave name to the family of Allerby, whose heiress brought this manor to the Eglesfields[c]. It was purchased of their descendant in the latter part of the 17th century, by Richard Lamplugh, Esq. of Dovenby, and is now the property of J.D. Ballantine Dykes, Esq. in right of his wife, the daughter of the late Frecheville Dykes, as representative of the Lamplughs. In the parish church is a chapel belonging to the Hayton estate, in which are several monuments of the Musgrave family, particularly Sir Richard Musgrave, who accompanied Sir Joseph Williamson at the treaty of Rys-wick, and was one of the knights of the shire (ob. 1710.) Sir Richard Mus-grave Hylton; his grandson, (ob. 1755.) and the late Sir William Musgrave, for whom there is the following memorial. “This monument was erected in memory of Sir William Musgrave. The sixth baronet of his family, and son of Sir Richard Musgrave, by Anne Hylton : the truest encomium of him will be found in the following synopsis of his well spent life. He was born at Hayton castle in this parish, 8th October 1735 : after the usual time spent in scholastic education, chiefly at Houghton le Spring, in the county of Durham : he was entered of the ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- [a] Kimber’s Baronetage. It is very likely that it was besieged in 1648, when several of the Cumberland castles were garrisoned for the king; but we find no mention of this in any of the histories. Scaleby Castle, which belonged also to Sir Edward Musgrave in 1648, was then garrisoned and taken. The account of the Musgraves, and their early possession of Scaleby, given by Kimber, on the authority, as it appears, of family traditions, is very erroneous. [b] See Cart. 6 Edw. I. [c] T.

Hello Beryl Do you have any connections with MURRAY's and DUNN's just across the border in Redesdale, Northumberland? I have a James Patterson MURRAY who marries Margaret DUNN in 1855. James was born in Scotland (haven't found his birth yet) in about 1831 and Margaret was born at Pity Me (which is in the Otterburn ranges now and in ruin) also in 1831. Three of James's younger siblings were born in Hownam in the late 1830's, three others on Scotland (still to be found) and the two eldest in farms near Otterburn. James parents were John MURRAY and Susannah ROBSON. Haven't found their marriage and am guessing that it could have been a cross border marriage as they were either Presbyterian and Susannah also has Catholics in her ancestry. Her parents were John ROBSON and Susannah SELBY who married in Jedburgh in 1780.
